Top 5 Bookstores in Paris

Written in

Hi Guys, Trang’s here ! Sorry for the little delay, my week was packed with New York Fashion week, and then medschool exams and night shifts at the hospital. As part of my fashion blog, I got the chance to go to Paris Fashion Week and assist Chanel, Louis Vuitton and Lacoste shows 😀 I met Jennie from Blackpink at the Chanel show and it was AMAZING.

Let me know if you want a detailed Fashion Week post !

But the cool thing is I got to visit Paris and I was wandering around and you know what I noticed ? TONS OF BOOKSTORES <3. Dreams. Here’s a little Bookstore Tour if you ever want to go to Paris 😉

1.Shakespeare & Company 

The most famous of all and full of books in english.  They also have a little cafe which gives an even more Parisian vibe to this library.

📌37 Rue de la Bûcherie, 75005 Paris, France

2. The Abbey Bookshop

If you want to see tons of stacks of books, this is the library to go to.

📌 29 rue de la Parcheminerie

3. Comme Un Roman 

A little more modern, you’ll find a variety of books but they also have a used book section with cheaper price.

📌39 Rue de Bretagne

4. Any Bookstore in the Passages

I love wandering in the Passages of Paris, you’ll find libraries and stamp collectors which gives out that vintage vibes. Definitely recommending wandering in the passages whenever you get the chance.

5. OFR Bookshop

I randomly stumbled on this bookstore and I included in this list because of the artsy decor of the place. It’s renowned to have a vast collection of art and magazines books and I found some great 3 euros book deals as well!

📌 20 Rue Dupetit-Thouars

    Amazing! Looks like you had a great time in Paris! Thank you for sharing!

    Did you visit the book stalls on the banks of the Seine? They were my favourite when I went to Paris few years ago. I brought home Paris editions of classic comics, Tin Tin and Asterix and Obelix. They loved them!

        Maybe next time you go! I loved visiting all the art galleries 😍 Musee d’Rodin and d’Orsay were spectacular and a bit quieter than the Louvre (which was also amazing!)
